#密码资产动态追踪 Bitcoin's "Stalemate" and Breakthrough Tug of War



The market is like being trapped in an elevator—lacking upward momentum, not fully falling, yet always hoping for a skyrocket someday.

Recently, Bitcoin's movement is a perfect reflection of reality: the ups and downs are entirely controlled by macro factors. The price repeatedly fluctuates around $92,000, with bulls and bears engaged in a tug-of-war that has no clear winner—the rope moves, but no one truly gains the upper hand.

On-chain data reveals some interesting information. Over $100 million in long positions were liquidated in the middle of the night, while large institutions quietly transferred assets to exchanges—this back-and-forth scenario vividly depicts the inner struggles of market participants.

The Psychosis of Investors

When the price hit $95,000, the community was excited: "This time, it's really going to break through!" But what happened? Not long after, it turned downward. When it returned near $92,000, some cheered: "I knew it would be like this!" This daily psychological game causes traders' emotions to fluctuate more violently than the candlestick charts.

The phenomenon of continuous ETF fund outflows is especially ironic—investors shout "long-term optimism" while quietly reducing their holdings. This is akin to vowing to get fit but still choosing to lie on the sofa.

The "Life and Death Moment" for Leveraged Traders

Long traders using 50x or even 100x leverage are currently sitting on the "cliff" between $89,000 and $90,500, with every price fluctuation making their hearts race. Slight dips in price bring liquidation risks dangerously close. They are eating instant noodles but can't taste anything.

The options market situation is even more complex. A large number of short positions are defending above $95,000, with market makers filling this price range with signals of "danger." If the price breaks through this critical level, it may trigger short covering, leading to a rapid rally. But all of this depends on—whether it can truly break through.

The current issue is no longer whether Bitcoin can rise, but whether market participants can reach a consensus. The game between retail investors and institutions continues, with signals from technicals, fundamentals, and capital flows all mixed together, making it difficult to make clear judgments. To buy or to sell, perhaps the only option is to listen to your inner voice—and then do the opposite.

The elevator dilemma metaphor is perfect; right now, it's just repeatedly rubbing against the 89,000 line. Bro with 100x leverage, surviving is truly a miracle. The institution's method of transferring assets is indeed sophisticated; retail investors are still shouting for a breakout here. Going against the trend really hit me... Honestly speaking. Is 95,000 really a life-and-death threshold? Feels like this number has been overhyped. ETF outflows are happening again, and people are still optimistic long-term. This logic is indeed as bad as my gym membership. When can we reach a consensus? Feels like we're always swaying back and forth. The tug-of-war metaphor is spot on; I understand that helpless feeling of never winning. Sitting on the edge of a cliff eating instant noodles... This description definitely comes from real experience. Trying to break through with just a 93,000-95,000 range? That's a bit far-fetched.

Leverage players with 100x leverage are probably scared to death now, haha

The elevator is stuck, can't go up or down, so annoying. Haha, it's another case of split personality, feeling like losing money on both buying and selling. The 50x leverage eating instant noodles is hilarious, that's me in real life. The institutions' move this time is really disgusting, they say they are optimistic but are actually dumping. Will 95,000 break or not? If I keep hesitating, I might vomit blood. That line about operating in the opposite direction really hit home, that's exactly how I lost money.

Schizophrenia is when someone is shouting about long-termism while running away, hilarious.

Stuck in the elevator, I see it's the institutions accumulating, retail investors taking the bait, dreaming of soaring to the sky. The 95,000 hurdle can't be crossed, indicating the bulls are very weak. If they were truly going to break through, they would have done it already. Now it's just a repeated slaughter. The 50x bulls are on the edge of a cliff. I really want to see what happens if 90,000 breaks. Bloodshed and panic selling, the moment of bloodshed. Promising long-term optimism but secretly reducing positions—this logic is as bad as me shouting about fitness while lying on the sofa. The back-and-forth between 92,000 and 95,000, probably just waiting for the last wave of decline to make a big bottom-fishing move. A $100 million order explosion, institutions switching exchanges, a tug-of-war situation—frankly, no one believes this will rise. It's time to go against the trend. The more I see it rising, the more I want to cut.
